How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 435 ÷ 500 = 0.87
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.87 × 100 = 87%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 87% of 500 is 0.87 × 500 = 435.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 435/500 = p/100, so p = 435 × 100 ÷ 500 = 87%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =435/500*100. Dividing the wrong way round (whole ÷ part) gives a different answer. The number after “of” is always the whole, so it goes on the bottom.
